Sofirn Q8 group buy (gb closed, but try PM to Sofirn for discount)

I received the PM and the code but I’ll elect not to purchase the Sofirn Q8. Just decided its not a light I need. Thanks for all the work.

No code here either. Surprised? Not in the least…. good bye q8. Got 2 originals anyways.

Sofirn closes down about 9am or 10am Central USA time zone. They will be opening back up in the next couple hours, around 9pm to 10pm. You can’t expect any replies during non work hours.

I say this because it seems people expect them to answer 24 hours a day. They can’t.

Amazon US code received. ordered. Thanks.

Just now sent? I guess Sofirn employees are back at work now.

Yes… just now… i placed my order as soon as i received the code.

Received a code last night from Sofirn. I will not be using it, as I just got a Q8 off the buy/sale forum here on BLF. Thank you anyways Sofirn. Feel free to pass my code along to someone else.

The driver is 15$ and 4 xpl emitters have to be worth 3-4$ each ...

Ask yourself if the bezel ,reflector,heatsink ,lighted switch,springs,glass,body and shipping are worth 10$ to you ?

got my code last night and ordered today

Umm…. if that’s what you think they pay for those components…. You need to re-evaluate your numbers.
There is NO WAY they pay NEAR those amounts for said components in an industrial/commercial quantity.

Why would you assume he’s talking about the manufacturers cost?
He’s refering to the retail costs, the price you and I would pay since that is what is relevant to us.

um… why would he be posting those numbers to us in the 1st place? are YOU gonna build any of these by hand? even if supplied the components?
I AM, even IF i need to source my own components. :slight_smile:

Don’t ask me why he posted it, I’m just correcting your misunderstanding. :partying_face:

Jason doesnt mean it. He is just mentioning. Just 4 xpl hi led cost $20-$22 if i were gonna build a light…

$40 for the sofin q8 is great deal…

I simply had to do the math on this light personally for me to buy it . I know that even a decent tube light host is usually about $10 and figured there was no way I could get a Q8 host with what I consider nicer looking knurling or anything close to that kind of money .

I said it to convince people on the fence to grab one of these lights . The driver alone is worth the price of the light .

If I just wanted the better knurling and the bottom part what do you think the cost would be ?.$10+.

I wouldn't ship half a light half way across the globe for less than 10$

You're right I shouldn't be thinking out loud on the forum or worrying about what other people do or don't do .

Shut-up and buy it :P

I believe all codes sent for AMZ US. If anyone was missed, please PM.

Thank you BLFers for all your help and support!

For those who have BLF Q8 and want a long tube, time is coming soon. :smiley:

Thanks for doing this .

I'd told Djozz that I had plans in the works just a few weeks ago to see if we could simply do a reboot of the original Q8. I was surprised to see that someone else had the same idea...Brilliant minds think alike :)

I want the long tube for my Q8.

Amazon US code received and ordered. TYVM!

+1… It is a great deal!! … :+1:

And as far as your “thinking out loud” Boaz, no need to apologize…… I like the way you think. :+1:

Personally, what I find somewhat comical; are the ’announcements’ by some that because they have/had not yet received their Code they are no longer interested in the light.
I guess they might not realize it takes a while to send individual codes to each person.

Thank you Sofirn!! :+1:
